Basic Game - Hangar 18. Sign ups!

[peacesells]

I'm next up in the basic que.  I'll get the game going after the New Year to give everyone a chance to get back to normal.

 

I'm thinking a Megadeth theme.  It will be pretty much like my last game with one rule tweak.

 

It will be a true basic game.  I'll give the setups and randomly choose one.  You will all know the possible roles but not which ones are in use.

 

There will be a post requirement.  It won't be too heavy but it will be there.

 

 

Go ahead and sign up here.

 

1. This is a hammer/time limit game. When a majority of votes have been cast on one player, day phase will end and any further votes or unvotes will no longer be counted.

2. If a majority does not take place, whoever has the majority at days end will be lynched. Ties result in a No Lynch..

3. "No lynch" is an option.

4. Self votes are allowed.

5. Days (except for day 1) will last approximately 72 hours, and nights approximately 24 hours, unless the deadline falls on a weekend. If the deadline falls on a weekend, it may be pushed until Monday.

6. Any night actions received after the night deadline will be forfeit. Once you have submitted your night action, you may not change your mind.

7. All votes must be in bold red.

8. Omitted

9. No direct quoting of mod communications. Feel free to paraphrase or downright lie as you will.

10. Editing is not allowed.

11. No communication is allowed about this game outside the game thread, except where specifically authorized by the mods.

12. No posts in the game thread once you are confirmed dead by the mod.  Violating this rule will result in your team being punished.

13. Omitted

14. Game play is game play. ANYTHING ON THREAD IS GAME PLAY. Any response to anything on thread is GAME PLAY.

15. Please be active. At minimum, You must have at least 25% of the number of posts that the mod has at the end of the Day phase.  (This is a total post count.  Not a per day post count) If you are going to be unavailable for more than a day or two, please let us know. If there are more than 1 inactive players I will grant a random active player the ability to pick an inactive player and instakill them. That player will be given a time limit to do so. If they do not submit the instakill then they will in turn be mod killed.

16. This is where I'm supposed to make a comment about making personal insults. IMO it's an insult to expect there to be mafia play without something being said that can be taken personally. If there is an issue where you feel lines have been crossed then the ONLY recourse is a PM to me. I will then determine the appropriate course of action. This may include bringing in outside help to validate my thinking. Otherwise understand that you are playing a game that encourages a hostile environment. If you feel that you are easily upset by negative comments directed your way this is not the game for you.

 

The 6 possible setups are: (I may make minor tweaks before the game starts depending on number of players that sign up.  But these are basically the choices.)

1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 1 Sane Cop, 1 Sane Doctor, 5 Townies

1 Mafia Goon, 1 Mafia Roleblocker, 7 Townies

2 Mafia Goons, 1 Sane Cop, 6 Townies

2 Mafia Goons, 1 Sane Doctor, 6 Townies

2 mafia Goons, 1 Sane cop, 1 Sane Doc, 5 townies

1 mafia goon, 1 mafia roleblocker, 1 sane cop or doc, 6 townies.

You step down from the bus joining the others in a small group.  Ahead of you is large gray hanger.  The number 18, large, black and menacing displayed prominently over the large bay doors.   

This is it. – You think to yourself.  Finally you get to see the secrets hidden within.  You’ve been tracking down this information for most of your adult life.  Other’s have called you crazy but you’ve always known you were right.  They are out there, and proof is inside that hanger.

A small door next to the larger hangar bay opens, and a man in a black jump suit steps through and heads toward your group.   As he gets closer you notice he is wearing a strange oversized set of goggles and his face almost looks skeletal. 

“Welcome to Hangar 18.” He hisses. “I am Vic Rattlehead and I’ll be showing you around, so to speak.” 

With that, he turns and heads back to the hangar.  Everyone in the group looks to each other wondering if they are supposed to follow.  You’ve waited to long to see this and rush to fall a step behind Mr. Rattlehead.

Once inside the hanger, you are overwhelmed by it’s sheer size.  Mr. Rattlehead points to some folding chairs set up in the middle of the hanger in front of a chalkboard.  You join the group in picking a seat.   

BOOM -  Everyone’s head turns back to the entrance.  You see a very large heavy gauged metal wall has slammed in place sealing off both the large and small hangar bay doors.  You feel a slight panic as you realize you’ve just been cut off from the outside world.

“Ahem.” Vic rattles.  “Let’s get started.”

“Welcome to our fortress tall
We’ll take some time to show you around
Impossible to break these walls
For you see the steel is much to strong.”

“Some of you have come looking for peace of some kind or another. For some it may be peace of mind.  Some it may be world peace.  For others it may be for a piece of the pie.  Before we can start the tour and show you the wonders hidden here in Hangar 18.  And,” Vic pauses, “indeed, they are wonders.  We must sort out a small situation.”

Situation? - You think to yourself.  Oh please let there not be a situation.  You’ve been waiting so long, nothing can ruin this now. 

“Our intelligence has determined that there are spies in this group.” 

A few in the group are obviously startled by this.

“Unfortunately we do not have the man power nor resources to ferret out these spies.  That leaves us with two options.  Send you all away or let the group ferret out the scum.”

Immediately you stand up. “I’ve waited too long for this.  There is no way I am leaving!”

Others shake their heads nodding agreement.

“Very well,” Vic says.  “Then know this, it is up to you to turn in the scum.  Dead!”

With that, he walks to a far corner of the hangar.  But just before he is out of earshot he turns and says “CAN YOU PUT A PRICE ON PEACE?” and laughs as he exits through a small door in the far corner.

That last question echos in your head as you look at the other faces in the group. 

Where do we start? – you think.

In.  One question: does mod confirmed death mean when you have posted a vote count saying you have been lynched or is it when a scene has been posted?

Scene.

[hazelkrs1]

I am ALL over this. Sign me up please Peace

[hazelkrs1]

Also wanted to say, Peace, I think you write some of my favorite flavor scenes. Its always tough trying to fabricate a scenario which would let the whole mafia concept fit into easily, but you have an absolute Talent at it.

 

And Hangar 18 is prob my favorite Megadeth song!!! Sad thing is, the band I was in not too long ago (the same one who's name I used for my DM handle) was actually JUST starting to practice a cover of it before I quit. Anddddddd now I'm depressed.

[hazelkrs1]

 

Oh look, I'm cheered up again

Very kind of you to say Desp.  I always think they come across as corny.  But I'm glad someone enjoys them. 

 

I've got a Operation Mindcrime advanced game about 75% built.  If I can ever finish that I'll be happy.

In the second setup, what is the point of a mafia roleblocker?

[peacesells]

It keeps the teams from knowing what roles are in the game.

[WolfbrotherKronos]

I'll play.

 

What is the difference between a sane cop and a normal cop?

[peacesells]

I'll play.

 

What is the difference between a sane cop and a normal cop?

No difference

[Nolder]

Oh so it's kind of a more simple version of TEO

Hmmm I already committed myself to that murder mystery thing in the WT

I'm probably going to pass on this but I'll see where sign ups are after the new year settles in and if there's room I'll join

[hazelkrs1]

I really wanna pull my name out of signups right now. But it's Peace's game and Hangar 18 is my favorite 'Deth song. So nah. But this is my last DM mafia game for a while.
